Is this OK? What do they gain by name changing? I've had a quick search around the forums and found this. Quote @E-raser Membership Requirements Need to be registered on the website for 1 month and have 20 posts. Your in-game identity (such as GUID) must not be banned by anti-cheat services such as pbbans.com You must not be in another clan Your game name and forum names must match Have read, understand, and agree to abide by the XI Code of Conduct Need to have and use either Steam, Origin, TS, or Discord Need to be 18 years old When I rejoined I asked to keep my gaming id for this forum for continuity and, well that's my nickname. I don't see any benefits to me changing every other map and wouldn't even think about doing so. Your thoughts please people , especially those that do have several alias and have good reason for doing it Either way you are stuck with the weakest link aka Totty>XI< Teki 1 Awards

They can do so for whatever reason, and admins should not call them out if they choose to play under an alias. However, clan members cannot wear clan tags with any other name other than the one they joined XI with. They do not have privileges with the alias, such as not getting re-directed if the server is full. Totty, Labob, major-mark63 and 3 others 5 1 Awards

Do they try to use things in game? thinking they won,t get caught? because no one knows who they are.I have notice certain people changing names in game and have played a lot better .I understand Admins doing so to catch them out.

BUT WHATEVER YOU DO, get back in those maps soldiers! Yeeehaw! I do get that certain players don't get on with other players and change their name to go undercover as it were. But most people know who the other aliases are anyway, so no real gain. Also there is the loss of Intel if that player doesn't keep their team informed so that they can stay undercover. Maybe it's just me in my rose tinted world thinking its only a game and everyone should just work together to get the job done. Edited October 3, 2022 by Totty BlackRose 1 Awards
